This study analyzes a single server queueing
model with a time-dependent arrival rate and
service rate is constant. In this model, the incoming arrivals are Poisson
stream; service time is exponentially distributed and the first-come first-served
queueing discipline. We obtain an explicit expression for the state
probability distribution with time-dependent arrival rate using unit step
function.
